ok, so the weapons. Overall, the weapons are off balanced a little, but this is intended. See, if the battle rifle and carbine were the exact same, but with a different coat, then it would be boring. The carbine has less rounds, but gives a better punch overall. The battle rifle has more ammo, and gives better damge wit head shots (try using a plasma pistol to lower their shield, then unlesh a round of battle rifle ammo to the head, for an instant kill). This also applies to weapons like the SMG and plasma rifle. The SMG has more ammo, and sprays bullets fater, but the plasma rifle slows down the enemy, and if cought from behind, will freeze them up. I could go on, but don't feel the need to.Here's that quote from Thunder by the way:

3) Yeah, because its real easy to see how having a Rocket Launcher is just as good as having a Shotgun. Ok.

For the vehicles, yea it's too bad the airplane went missing. I was expecting one too after seeing the E3 demo. O well. As for the ATV, you should have checked the bonus disc for info on it. Originally, it was planned, but after many problems with its physics and meaningless purpose (no weapons, just gets you from point A to B), it was removed. A future download seems unlikely.
I also never said that Halo 2 was better than any other PC shooters, like Half-Life 2 or Battlefield.All i was sayin was that Halo revolutionized the gaming industry, in my eyes, by bringing a great FPS from the PCs to a console and giving it online play. Heres wat i said:

To sum everything up, Halo 2 is the best, current FPS to date(on consoles anyway).

P.S. Yea I've heard about marathon, and seen pics of it, but never got a chance to play it. It looks like good ol fun. And what I said about Nintendo fanboys, my bad. I just come from other websites where they are usually bitches, who can't expand their view points to see that Nintendo is loosing ground to today's rivals. They still think it's the glory day in the early 90's, where Nintendo had no competition. It's a shame, really. I guess i just out grew Mario and Donkey Kong, and wanted some Grand Theft Auto, SOCOM, Halo, and Unreal.
